“Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary Reflection 3rd"

“What is RSS”?

Well RSS stands for “Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary

“Now what does that mean”?

“This is an acronym used to describe the de factor standard for the syndication of web content. RSS in an XML-based format and while it can be used in different ways for content distribution, it’s most widespread usage is in disturbing news headlines on the web” (Ribble, 2011 p.148).
Well at first I was having difficulties as to how it works or what it is? Then I started browse different  webs and information that was posted on Sakai. Later I was able to comprehend the information  in very clearly. Along with that I had to watch couple of you tube’s videos in order to put the puzzle together.  Basically this is a very easy method service revolutionizing the way we search for certain websites. This means when we visit certain websites, we don’t need to keep checking for the new updates rather we just need to subscribe to the RSS feed, then we will have access to all the updates within no time. 

Result of setting up my own RSS 

After I set up my own account, feedly then I realized the importance of it and how I can utilize the advancement functions for my own benefit. I realized this is a great tool for me to get all the necessary information about neuropsychology and about mental health issues. I downloaded the app on my phone as well, so that I can have access to all the information in my fingertips. I have subscribed to numerous sites psychology, mental health, designs, makeups and designs. All the information that are being updated on the site is accurate and very helpful. I always wanted to do research about my career and get familiarize, but sometimes I get caught up with my own school work and plus my part time job. This way the app is on my phone and I can access this information while being on the bus, home and even at my own work place. Rather than using internet to go on face book or instagram, I would rather read relevant information about my career and gain insightful knowledge. I'am glad that i took this course because it helps me to improve my knowledge and i'am learning something new every session.
